Hey people. I logged in after so many years. I tried like everything water filters, finasteride, multivitamins, oils, shampoos, minoxidil (still do) and their combinations and after all that i came across a thing called "acceptance"
. It becomes easy when your friends and cousins with no balding history have also started going bald the difference was i started balding a little early. Over the years thinning has increased a lot specially on the top but thankfully the shape of my head is like that it doesn't look bad. I still use minoxidil that has helped me a little to retain some hair. I wont recommend finasteride because for me it is better to have a bald head than to live with sexual side effects. There are few points balding people should consider:
1. Don't allow balding process to decrease your self esteem and confidence rather use it to boost it
2. Don't think of it as something abnormal. it is normal for men to go bald at early stage of life
3. Look for a haircut that's suits your thinning and rock that style
4. It will become non-issue over time
5. Use combination of minoxidil, good keratin shampoo and multivitamin (optional i don't take it now it loses effectiveness over time and you have to change the brand)
6. Hard water, diet etc etc are excuses. Most of us with with pattern baldness have genetically weak hair.
7. Most important of all don't stress over it. stress and anxiety makes it worse
